Flaming Lamborghini

A pyrotechnic party ritual as much as a cocktail - sambuca and Kahlúa ignite in the glass while Baileys and blue curaçao stand ready to extinguish the flames and complete the ride.

Method
  1. 1

    Pour 30ml Kahlúa and 30ml Sambuca into a cocktail glass and place a drinking straw in the glass.

  2. 2

    Pour 30ml Baileys Irish Cream into one shot glass and 30ml Blue Curaçao into a second shot glass, positioning one on each side of the cocktail glass.

  3. 3

    Carefully ignite the contents of the cocktail glass using a long match or long-neck lighter.

  4. 4

    Begin drinking immediately through the straw - this drink must be consumed in one continuous, uninterrupted go.

  5. 5

    As you near the bottom of the cocktail glass, signal to a helper to simultaneously pour both the Baileys and Blue Curaçao into the flaming glass to extinguish the fire.

  6. 6

    Continue drinking until the glass is completely empty. WARNING: Never touch the glass while it is alight - the glass will be extremely hot. Ensure no flammable materials are nearby and always have a fire safety plan in place.

From the Bartender

The straw is essential - it allows you to drink from the bottom of the glass while the surface is still alight, so never omit it. Always brief your helper before igniting; the pour from the shot glasses must be simultaneous and decisive to extinguish the flame cleanly.

Brainteaser
Irish Cream

Brainteaser

A rich, dessert-like shot with warming anise from the Sambuca on top, a custardy Advocaat middle, and a smooth, velvety Irish cream base - sweet, creamy, and faintly boozy with a lingering licorice finish.

B-52
Kahlua

B-52

A decadent, layered experience of roasted coffee and dark chocolate from the Kahlúa, velvety vanilla and cream from the Baileys, crowned by a warm, bright burst of orange and cognac - rich, sweet, and deeply satisfying.

Blind Russian
Baileys Irish Cream

Blind Russian

Rich and velvety with deep notes of chocolate, espresso, and butterscotch swirled through silky cream - indulgent and warming, like a boozy milkshake built for slow sipping.

Quentin
Dark rum

Quentin

Rich and indulgent, this creamy cocktail weaves deep coffee and vanilla notes from Kahlúa with the molasses warmth of dark rum, all wrapped in a velvety cream texture and lifted by the aromatic spice of freshly grated nutmeg.
